Dunning at Dover, Del.,, by sending her a box of poisoned candy, is called for trial on Monday, | February 15. A date was under consideration for the trial of Arthur T. Winter, charged with assault to rob, and February 17 was suggested by Assistant District At- torney Ashe. “It can't be set for that day,” said the Judge, “as the Botkin trial com- mences on February 15.” *““We will not be ready to go to trlal on that day,” replled Ashe, “‘and will have to ask for a week's continuanca.” “You will be ready to go to trial on that day,” retorted the Judge, “‘or I will dismiss the case. Attorney has had nearly six weeks to get his witnesses and prepare to go on with the trial and he ought to be ANCE PROBABLE. Ashe did not vouchsafe a reply, and af the District Attorney was not in court the matter dropped. ‘When the District Attorney was no- tified later of the Judge’'s remark he said: ‘““Well, let him dismiss the case. It will not help Mrs. Botkin any, as I will take ample measures to protect the interests of the State. If I had been present in court I would Mave asked him definitely if he meant what he said, so as to be prepared. I 1 not now do anything in that direction till the proper .ime arrives.” The District Attorney has been in communication with Attorney General Ward of Delaware as to making ar- rangements for transportation of the witne: so far heard from him definitely.

I wrote to Gov- ernor Hunn Delaware last week, pointing out that it is as much the interest State as it is to ours that all s should be here to testify against this woman, who has committed a most atrocious crima. I mentioned the fact to him and also to Attorney General Ward that the State of Delaware did not contribute a cent toward the expenses of the last trial and I thought they should do something this time. I am waiting for their answer, and that is why I will be compelled to ask for a continuance. I do not want to go to trial till I am assured that all the witnesses will be here.

Let him follow my advice for three months and I will make him as vigorous in every respect as any man of his age. I will not promise to make a Hercules of 2 man who was never intended by nature to be strong and vigorous. better than he is; but the man who has been strong and has lost his strength I can make as good as he ever was. 3 I can give back to any man what he has lost by violation of the laws of nature. I can stop all drains upon his vitality in ten days. B A man who is nervous, whose brain and body are weak, who sleeps badly, awakes more tired than when he went to bed, who is e_:gfly qu couraged, inclined to brood over imaginary troubles, who has lost ambition and energy to tackle hard problems, lacks the animal electricity which the Dr. McLaughlin Electric Belt supplies. The whole force of vitality in your body is dependent upon your animal electricity. ner my Belt will replace it and will cure vou Mr. Harry U. Jackson, Valleton, Cal., writes October 1: *“Although you are a stranger te me, my heart warms toward you as & great benefactor and friend, and I am more than grateful to you. Already I feel the vigor of new life in my body; no es and no pains. 1 wish you every success In your work. Letters like that tell a story which means a great deal to a sufferer. They are a beacon light to the man who has become discouraged from useless doctoring. I get such letters every day. My Belt has a wonderful influence upon tired, weak nerves. n t 1 make the best electrical body appliance in the world, having devated twenty years to perfecting it. everything else has failed are my best arguments. Mr. Roy Burks, McKittrick, Cal., writes: ‘From the first night T wore the belt I felt new life in every part of my body. The weakness was checked immediately, and I am now able to do_heavy work without tiring. I am glad I thought of the belt, for in no other way could the money bring me so much pleasure.” 1 AP Give me a man with pains in his back, a dull ache in his muscles or joints, “come-and-go” pains in his shoulders, chest and side, Sciatica in his hip, Lumbago, Rheumatism, or any ache or paih, and my Belt will pour the oil of life into his aching body and drive out every sign of pain. No pain can exist where my Belt is worn. ) . Baird of Orland, Cal., writes October 13: Even that man I can make When you lose that by draining the system in any man- It braces and invigorates them, and stirs up a great force of energy in a man. I know my trade. My cures after My back is entirely well, and I would not take $100 for my belt if I could not get another. It is the best thing on earth for a lame back 3 i And these “old” men, these men who have burned the candle at both ends—or even if they haven’t—these men who for one reason or another feel that life has lost its spice. that they are getting old too fast, I can make them feel the sparkle and fire of youth again. I'll never forget when Mr. A. Crawford of Pokegama, Oregon, an old man of seventy, wrote to me and said: “When I wrote to you last I told you to send me a Belt to make an old man young, and you did. I am seventy years old, and since I have worn the Belt I feel as strong as .I did at thirty-five, and can do as good a day’s work as I could at that age.” It was two years ago that Mr. Crawford wrote me that letter. Here is one I just got from him: - ““In reply to your letter T am Blad to say that T am just as much In favor of your Beit as T ever was, for it has been a remarkable heip to me. T am seventy-two years old, but I do not look any more than fifty. Am enjoying perfect heaith, and will continue to recommend the Belt, as I have been doing right along, as I realize that but for it I should have been dead and buried by this time.”" They come every day from everywhere. There is not a town or hamlet in the country which has not cures by Dr. McLaughlin’s Electric Belt. Now, what does this mean to you, dear reader? If you are not what you ought to be, can you ask any better proof to make you try it? Is there a remedy which 1s as simple, as easy to use, as sure to cure and as cheap as Dr. McLaughlin’s Electric Belt? I have not seen one. You must try it. In justice to yourself, and to those who look to you for their future happiness, try it now. Act this minute. Such a matter ought not be delayed.
